you can try to reinstall from scratch, directly from SuperSU if you can enter into the apps.
Otherwise better to flash .zip package under recovery.
Hope it helps.

Or you can do it manually...as posted by the OP (@theraver) in a different thread :
binary: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11494687/superuser/su
to install do this:
Update to superuser 3.0.5 in the market (if you didn't do this)
adb remount
adb push su /system/bin/
adb shell chmod 06755 /system/bin/su
adb shell rm /data/data/com.noshufou.android.su/databases/permissions.*

lost root on HTC sensation?
I updated to 3.06 and also updated the binary...but then it seems I've lost root after I did that. I am not sure how to clear the data if I can't get into titanium backup?? I am using a HTC sensation.
Any ideas how I can fix it? Do I just flash the su file again in recovery?
Thx

Su binary outdated Message on FR007

I am running FR007 on my aria. I am getting a su binary outdated message when launching titanium backup. The message says my su binary installed version is 2.3-ef and that the latest version is 3.0.3. When I try to update the su binary it fails and my aria reboots. My currently installed superuser version is 3.0.7.
I would appreciate instructions on how to fix this issue.
That is outdated. Just flash the attached file via CWM Recovery.
I appreciate your help Theonew. That seems to have fixed the problem.

[Q] Su update.zip

For some reason, I have CWM and Superuser, but no su command. Can anyone send over an update.zip with the SU file?
go into the super user app and check for updates that will give you a log of what is wrong

[Q] Where does supersu check for the su binary

Where does supersu search for the su binary. I am stuck with the cannot find su manually reroot message. This was after updating a working rooted system to the latest supersu after it asked me to. The only su on the system is in /system/xbin/su there is no su in /system/bin and /system/sbin does not exist.
Can I manually reroot by using adb to create a link from xbin/su to bin/su?
I cannot find any info on "manually rerouting" that says anything but reinstall the latest zip. Which is what I did.
Help!

[Q] Loaded Clockworkmod Superuser Update - Lost Root - Note N7000

Hi All.
Sorry about the noob question, I am not a developer at all, and the only reason I rooted my Galaxy Note N7000 was so that I can update the ROM to the newest version of KitKat once the ROM is stable.
The problem is that last week I flashed the PhilZ-cwm6-XXLT4-OXA-4.93.6-signed file to the phone and it rooted successfully (Superclean asked for root access, I allowed it, and it appeared in the log of Superuser)
The problem happened last night when there was an OTA update for superuser, it said Su Binary needs updating, and I hit yes. I then lost root access as per Titanium backup.
I did a search and someone suggested removing and reloading the original superuser APK but that did nothing.
It seems the binary update pooched the root. Anyone successful in getting it back, or knowing how to?
Anyone can help on this?
It appears from the comments in Google Play that many people that were prompted to update the binary from superuser were left without root.
I lost root access on apps once.
All I did was:
1. re-install "superuser" from Google Play.
2. when opening "superuser" app, it asked to update the SU Binary.. and I allowed it to do so through recovery (TWRP/CWM). (I use CWM).
3. the phone will restart into recovery mode automatically, updating the SU Binary, then phone will restart again back into the OS.
This is all it took for myself to gain SU access again.
This should work if the ROM you're using truly does allow SU access.
OTHERWISE.
You could get the latest Super User.zip for your phone, and run it yourself through TWRP/CWM.
Hope this helps, or at least leads you to an answer.
new su binary is the culprit
Hello,
I too lost root after the su update - Superuser would not prompt any more, and all requests are denied after a timeout. Tried deleting Superuser data, deinstalling and reinstalling Superuser, same with some of the apps, but no avail. Then I noticed that sometimes after reboot /system/xbin/su worked when in android debug bridge shell, so I could get root. Then I replaced the su binary with a copy (in my case of OTA rootkeeper), and all started to work again.
Steps to replace:
1. become root in ADB shell using existing su binary
2. remounting system rw
3. bring replacement su to a ext-fs-partition of your device (needed for setuid)
4. make sure file permissions are set to 06755 (-rwsr-sr-x)
5. exit root
6. become root with newly copied su binary
7. replace defect su with new su
8. remount system ro
Hope koush will stop delivering this defect su soon ... I did mail him already ...
